*updated*SM TOWN Thailand Got Cancelled?? Due to Unsecure Situation in Bangkok(?)
Okay another bad news? Well, since im nothing against Thai fans... I hope everything will be okay, beside there is no official statement from both Adamas and SM Entertainment about this.
But i read on soompi and LJ, so many international fans were so worried, esp. Singaporeans, coz the goverment already gave a travel warning on wednesday, so did China, France, New Zealand, Britain, the United States, Australia and Japan. You can read the news here.
Anti government protesters in front of the departure terminal at Suvarnabhumi airport, Bangkok in the early hours of Wednesday Nov. 26, 2008. Outbound flights at Suvarnabhumi International Airport were temporarily suspended at 9 p.m. Tuesday, authorities said, shortly before hundreds of demonstrators — some masked and armed with metal rods — broke through police lines and spilled into the passenger terminal.

Official Statement from ADAMAS today
Summary: After the recent happenings in the Bangkok Airport, (Adamus) has been on the phone with an SME representative for half an hour to check on the situation from both sides. 20 SM Entertainment staff will be arriving tomorrow to Bangkok. Most of the details for the show have already been finalized, including stage décor. They have also reached an agreement that since the airport is still letting people in and out of the terminal, and there has been no announcement of an Emergency Royal Decree, the situation has died down and the concert will still go on schedule.
*side note : But i heard from one of the crew, the cancelation posibility is too big..T_T
SM Global Audition on 30th November 2008, Cancelled
News update @ 00:30 26/11/2008:
Unless the Thai gov't declares a state of emergency, or the Korean gov't deems it unsafe to travel to Thailand, SM Town Live in Bangkok 2008 will proceed as scheduled.
P/S a lot of airlines are cancelling their flights to bangkok, including singapore airlines.OH and wearing red/yellow is..not advised because you can be mistaken as an anti-govt.
Trans: Hi, I'm Nat. I used to work at Adamas. Please try not to spread/believe rumors and news that are not directly released from Adamas. Please, please ... I just checked with Adamas & Thai Airways and was informed that technical staff already took off from Korea. There is no cancellation tendency at the moment. Hope you all understand that this concert has been prepared & proceeded more than 90 percent and that cancellation or postpone is quite impossible. And the rumor to postpone the concert to next month is also not true. Please be patient and catch up latest info

On times like these, how I really hate those who gave a travel warning to Thailand. Im Indonesian, we're probably the most frequent country who received so many travel warnings from all over places. Like WTH dude,... you know Rihanna Concert got cancelled just 2 days before the concert day..>.>;;. And you know what, Jakarta was totally FINE that day, there's no demonstration, and no chaos hapenned that day, AND UNTIL TODAY ofcourse..geez... I hope for the best.
*update
Yeah today there's a blast at the airport..
and there's no flight to BKK today from Jakarta either.. just 3 days before the concert, and this is not a small matter...
niki18 at soompi called ADAMUS and 'The woman said that Korean party has no problem, and ADAMUS has no problem. But if the government announces "emergency" situation, the concert must be cancelled automatically.'
ARTISTES WILL LAND AT DON MUANG AIRPORT.
*My friend told me, the concert will not going to be cancelled unless there's a command from King himself.
